Exception handling in Enterprise Library 2.0 newbee question

F

fsatre

Hi all.

I am new to the Enterprise Library and having a problem with exception
handling in EntLib2.0.
My test application is a console application written in vb.net (.net
framework 2.0) se the code below.

The tracing works just fine but the TestException cases the Entlib2.0
to fail and my test programs goes into the catch where the comment
"'just to fetch any error while performing exception handling" is.
I have defined 2 exception policies the "Wrap Policy" and the "Log
Only Policy", both of them are resulting in the same error.

The exception message I get:
"The type
Microsoft.Practices.EnterpriseLibrary.ExceptionHandling.Logging.LoggingExceptionHandler,
Microsoft.Practices.EnterpriseLibrary.ExceptionHandling.Logging,
Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null from
configuration could not be created. (D:\...\MTest\bin\Debug
\MTest.vshost.exe.config line 161)"

Can anyone please help me?

Imports MTest.ExceptionAndTrace

Module Module1
Sub Main()
Try
TestTrace()
Catch ex As Exception
Console.WriteLine(ex.Message)
Finally
Console.WriteLine("FINE")
Console.ReadLine()
End Try
End Sub
Private Sub TestTrace()
Dim log As New ExceptionAndTrace
log.StartTrace("Testing")
'do some stuff and raise error
TestException()
log.StartTrace("End Test")
End Sub
Private Sub TestException()
Try
Throw New Exception("Dette er en feil")
Catch ex As Exception
Dim log As New ExceptionAndTrace
log.ExceptionHandling(ex)
End Try
End Sub
End Module
